Are you sure?

I see

"Any further SoBs (Signed-off-by:'s) following the author's SoB are from
people handling and transporting the patch, but were not involved in its
development. SoB chains should reflect the **real** route a patch took
as it was propagated to the maintainers and ultimately to Linus, with
the first SoB entry signalling primary authorship of a single author."

Now, when you read that paragraph, what do you think is the answer to
your question and why?

And if that paragraph doesn't make it clear, we would have to improve
it...

Thx.
